Hello friends! Happy Wednesday.
Today’s post is going to be short and sweet because I’m exhausted and feeling stressed and kind of overwhelmed at the moment (to put it lightly). I have finals next week and have my stats test Monday and my physics, ochem, and bio exams in a row on Wednesday-Friday. The thought of how much friggin’ material I have to learn and review is making me feel sick to my stomach.
On that fun note, onwards!
Breakfast:
Hold your horses- big change up here from the usual brown sugar banana oats! I added blueberries and pecans! Try not to get too excited.
Lunch:
Not super proud of this one. Lunch was a big bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats and a can of plain… tuna 😯 . I didn’t even bother to put in it a bowl, just ate it with a fork straight out of a can. Partly because my housemates don’t do their dishes (can you tell I’m in a pissy mood?) and partly because I’m a college kid and don’t need to keep up real-people appearances. I’ll spare you a picture since it looks like cat food. Meow.
Dinner:
The good stuff! A Thai tea and pineapple fried rice because I had just taken a demoralizing test and needed to eat my feelings out.
Overall I’m feeling kinda blah. I haven’t gone to the gym in over a week since I’ve been so busy with class and studying. Kyle and I were at the library from 5 p.m till almost 1 in the morning yesterday night and my legs are ITCHING to move. I might treat myself to a workout tomorrow if I can.
OH! And exciting news as of today. I had two recipes from Apple of My Eye featured on The Huffington Post (!!!!!!!!!). I die. This means I can be a full-time blogger now, right? 😉
Anyways, off to do more work. Hope you’re having a good week so far!
Polly @ Tasty Food Project says
I hope your week gets better! Just hang in there!
Congrats on getting your recipes featured! That’s exciting news!
Jessie says
Sending many positive prayers your way. Your almost done girl. Just keep in mind come next Friday all the stress will finally be over!
p.s. How dare you not show us that can of cat food. haha kidding
Erin @ The Almond Eater says
Hhaah that yoga picture. CONGRATS on being featured in the Huffington Post–that’s so exciting. Sorry you’ve been stressed lady but hey after finals you’ll get a break, right? I’m making this assumption so I hope I’m correct. Here’s to hoping today is better than yesterday Oh and if it makes you feel any better I eat tuna straight from a can kind of frequently…
Kelly @ Kelly Runs For Food says
Hope things get better soon! It’ll all be over before you know it and in the meantime, nothing wrong with eating tuna out of the can!
elise says
Aww lady, I’m sorry you’re totally feeling overworked and worn out. Just try to hang in there and keep pushing forward! It’s kind of cute to see you with a little more feisty than usual in your blog 😉
I just love the blueberries in oats combo. I absolutely hate pecans though and I can’t quite get into that part of it. But maybe paired with slivered almonds?! Yes, that sounds fabulous! Also, your lunch combo sometimes just happens. I’ve had times where my meals don’t really go together or make the most sense or really hit all the nutritional areas they should, but it either worked in the moment to keep me satisfied or just hit a craving I had.
Hope the rest of your week gets better lady! Much love xoxo
Sarah @pickyrunner says
Ahhh I know that feeling. Good luck on your exams! They’re almost over
Paige says
Hang in there girl, you do so much and should feel very proud of yourself. I just graduated in December, so those memories of going to school with a science major are still fresh.
KEEP.IT.UP…almost done!!
Conny says
Love your WIAW! Especially the fact with the dishes. Sometimes it’s exactly the same thing over here. Very annoying as you can tell.
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
Cereal… and tuna?? Now THAT is an interesting combination! Don’t worry, I have been known to come up with a few of my own strange combinations.
Hilary says
Oh my gosh congrats on your two posts! That is so exciting! And I say take some time to treat yourself to a workout! It will totally help with all that stress!
Amanda @ .running with spoons. says
HUGE congrats on the features, lady! You definitely deserve it 😀 And I’m sorry to hear you’ve been feeling a little stressed lately, but maybe you should try to schedule in some relaxation/workout time instead of spending all your time in the library studying? I know it’s hard to do something for yourself when you feel like you have so much to do, but sometimes the benefits to our mental health can actually help us out more in the long run.
Lindsay @ Lindsay Weighs In says
Congratulations on the Huffington Post recipe features – AMAZING! And that Om nom nom picture is THE BEST. hahaha
Lindsay says
Yumm!!!
Liz @ Carpe Diem and Run says
I’m sorry your week has been so busy! I hope things get less stressful soon!
Natalie @ lovenataliemarie says
You got this girl! Take a deep breath and try to relax. A big bowl of cereal is what we all need sometimes. Every night for me, to be honest.. o.o
Alex@Veggin' Out says
Your week will get better! I can see the future. 😉 Good luck on all your tests, I’m sure you’ll rock them! Also congrats on having your recipes featured! That is so awesome!
Leigha @ Minougirl says

Hahaha I love you. I remember the days of college roomies not doing dishes… misery…. and I would LOVE a big bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats for dinner. Yum in the fricking tum! And two recipes in the Huffington Post?!?! You’re killllin it, girl. And so, so close to the end of the semester!!! So excited for you!
Autumn Wieland says
okay, but that would bug me. I can’t STAND it when people leave their dishes all over the counter! 1..in the…morning. (eye twitch) wow. hey CONGRATS! hope you were able to get your workout in!
Katherine says
Well despite being stressed, your food looks great! Seeing as I’m writing this comment nearly a week later, I’m hoping that you are feeling MUCH more well rested, relaxed, and stress free! If not- the end is near! You can do it!
Sarah @ Sweet Miles says
GOOD LUCK on your finals!!!! I hope they go well!!
